Interesting and well written, but not quite what I've been wishing for -- a story that shows the other facets of Desire. Or shows what happens when Desire is taken out of the world for a while, as Dream was. Despair isn't just the hook in the flesh. She's also found in the absence of desire, the flat gray place where nothing moves because nowhere is better than anywhere else.

In any case, desire has treated me so gently that I'm always willing to be Desire's Advocate.
